There is a special tool and you can find it at most parts stores. It is oversized a bit and you slip it over the tie rod. Then you turn in the screw on the side to tighten it on the flats. The tool will have an opening at the end to accept a 3/8 or 1/2 ratchet, depending on the tool.

Disconnect the outer tie rod and remove,then remove boot,then use special tool to remove inner tie rod. You will then have to have it aligned. You can use a tape measure to get it close enough to drive,just mark one of the grooves in the tire so you are measuring the exact same points,measure from tire to tire in the front of front tires then take a measurement at the rear of front tires and adjust the outer tire rods until the measurements are pretty close to equal.

if fluid is flowing out the bellows, you need to replace the steering rack assembly. There is no fluid in the area of the inner tie rod. The seal is just before the tie rod.
